Ek Din
(2026)
|
Shubhra Gupta
|
Ek Din isn’t actively terrible. It tries to bring back clean youthful romance back to Bollywood, currently trapped between excessively violent and misogynist planks. It’s even got a forgettable Arijit song. But, just like its leads, it has no zing.

Patriot clearly demonstrates why the Big Ms continue to soar, while the thrones of their counterparts in many other languages quiver as they struggle to maintain the images they created in their prime, even now, well into old age.

It has to be said that some of the most enjoyable bits of the film belong to Dutt in full Khalnayak mode, who chews the scenery, ratcheting his smirking villainy with every scene.

For those in journalism, all this will sound familiar – though Andy’s runaway success is one of those fairy-tale stories no journalist will buy. For those looking for more, there is still a lot to go around, including fabulous Milan.

It follows a familiar Netflix template—bigger, louder, broader—without pausing to ask whether the story needs any of it. The tension becomes mechanical, the emotional beats predictable.

Ginny Wedss Sunny 2 movie review: Ginny Wedss Sunny 2 is exactly the kind of rom-com that Bollywood is constrained to doing these days...empty of fresh ideas, trying to please the conservatives and the so-called moderns, going exactly nowhere.

Part 2 has no novelty, fewer actors with recall value, and nothing going for it in terms of script, except putting Grace through a day-and-night of hell, with a Council of ‘Satan worshippers’ chasing her to kill her. Even the deaths are less original.

When the sport is front and centre, it is a genuinely thrilling watch, one that justifies every rupee spent on the racing sequences. But the drama holding those sequences together is routine, underdeveloped, and set to a score that does it no favours.

Unlike Vaazha, the second installment has its heart more or less in the right place. However, that doesn’t mean Vipin Das’ writing is extraordinary. In fact, despite having far better material, the writer has failed to flesh it out adequately.
